    Equipoise and bloodwork does it affect total testosterone?

    Hi Guys,

    Can anyone shed some light on whether equipoise will show in bloodwork as testosterone ?

    Thank you!

    No. Only testosterone will show as testosterone.

    Thanks I was curious as Boldenone is so similar chemically almost identical to testosterone and also I recently pinned some EQ and noticed my test was higher than expected.

    I’m hoping you are right and that the EQ I pinned was in fact falsely labelled Testosterone. I’m sure it’s a common way to fake bottles still.

    Anyone else that can comment in addition thanks

    The compounds that affect Testosterone bloodwork are :

    Test (All esters)
    Deca Durabolin
    NPP
    Nandrolone No Ester

    EQ will affect your CBC profile though (Hematocrit, Hemoglobin, Platelet Count, etc)
    Test (all esters)

    Hi Windex!

    Can you confirm whether It’s relevant if LC/MS testing is used for testosterone on whether or not equipoise will affect total T readings?

    Curious if in Australia they might use non LC/MS methods not sure?

    Deca will absolutely show up as test on bloodwork. The doctor cut my test dosage because it was testing above 1500 total

    The test must have been ECLIA methodology. Nandrolone is an interference substance for testosterone on ECLIA tests and tends to give falsely elevated levels, but the LC-MS\MS should discriminate between the 2. There used to be a .gov PDF online that listed interference substances on ECLIA testing.

    You'd probably want to ask the lab you plan on going to or looking it up on the government website. Not familiar with the way AUS does bloodwork.

    EQ should never affect Test levels though

    EQ can effect estrogen levels.. I've seen plenty of blood work of guys running a TRT dose of Test with like 600 EQ, and their E levels plummet
